I would target Robert Meachem or Pierre Garcon.

I was just about to ask what people thought of Meachem or Harry Douglas?

I worry about signing free agent WR's for big money. I think more then most positions the WR production is a reflection of how good the overall offense is...especially the QB. Mike Wallace & Vjax play in high scoring offenses with Big Ben and Rivers at QB. How would they look in an offense with Rex or a rookie QB throwing them the ball? It's basically just hard to know what you have and what you need on offense until you have a QB that plays at a high level.

Since everyone here has Wide Receiver Fever, you do all realize that Terrell Owens is available - - right?

Someone said that the Skins "need to get younger at WR". I think there is a more important point here. The Skins need to get [B]better[/B] at WR; if they also get younger at the same time, that is a bonus.

If you are looking at free agent acquisitions, Wes Welker will be a free agent and he can sort of catch the ball once in a while. Also a real sleeper in the free agent class might be Michael Spurlock.

My question about Meachem, over the last several seasons when Moore and Colston were missing time I expect Meachem to break out in that offense, he never really did. I remember Brees being interviewed a couple years ago and said this was gonna be the year of Meachem. He's never stepped up and if there is any offense to break out in, it would be New Orleans. Douglas really doesnt do anything for me, maybe its the first name.

Here's the thing with receivers.. They don't just all of the sudden figure it out on their second contract.. These guys are who they are, secondary options. I'd take what we have already (Gaffney, Moss, Stallworth) over Meachem or Douglas. Garcon I'd have to see more of but my big concern is that he's not going to be productive outside of Indy.

Hightower- resign him to keep the RB position solid for many years to come. I think the combination Helu and Hightower would a great combination in this system with Royster as a third down piece. I am cutting Torian.

Carriker has work well in the system and should be resigned. We don't know how Jenkins will come back from his injury and Adam is a solid piece.

Golston should be brought in to camp, but i don't know if he makes the team

McIntosh- Gone, not a fit.

Monty- 1 year deal and chance to compete for spot with draft pick

Polumbus - He should be back

Stallworth - I would definitely bring him back to at least push the younger guys next season. I think he replaced Armstrong.

That would require the Skins also to sign Michael Spurlock's brother from another mother...

[FONT="Courier New"]Garcon would definitely be on my target for as a #3 WR. Dude can make some big plays, but does drop them from time-to-time[/FONT]

The everage age for this team is a young 25.4 years of age. This includes the current active 53-man roster, guys on IR, and the two on suspension. It does not include guys on the PS which would make the average age even lower. That being said, I agree what Brian Mitchell said on the post game show: this team needs to continue to get the right players and not neccessarily get younger overall. Take a look at the guys "over the hill". The ones in bold were deemed starters.

[B]Beck [/B]30 (insufficient)
[B]Grossman[/B] 31 (inconsistent)

[B]Gaffney[/B] 31 (productive)
[B]Moss [/B]32 (still going strong)
Stallworth 31 (still going strong)

Sellers 36

[B]Brown[/B] 30 (injuries)
Locklear 30

[B]Fletcher[/B] 36 (still going strong)

Scott 30

[B]Atogwe [/B]30 (injuries)
Buchanon 31

[B]Rocca [/B]38 (still going strong)

Re: Make a Decison on the Future of...
 

Tim Hightower: Bring him back. He was productive while he was starting and healthy.

Adam Carriker: I'm not opposed to bringing him back and have him compete.

Kedrick Golston: Gone for sure.

Rocky McIntosh: Gone for sure x2

Will Montgomery: Sign as backup and bring in FA/Draft pick.

Tyler Polumbus: Bring back as backup.

Donte Stallworth: Bring him in to compete in camp. Most likely camp fodder.
